ok so you're forgetting to tell us about the time you dressed in your next door neighbours frilly pink dress and danced to Liberace numbers on the front lawn?
 
all I my life I've been obsessed with movies and music...I've always wanted to be an actor or writer....well this past month I finally decided to take the first step, I auditioned for a play I heard about, and I got the role, I got the part within the first 10 min, I have no experience or training....now I'm in over my head and opening night is on feb 14th and we'll be performing for 300 people including the mayor on opening night....pretty ballsy I thought...and the weird part is that I'm not scared at all..
 
That's unreal Edgevox!!!!
Congratulations!
Once u get up on that stage, the adrenalin will carry you and you won't ever want to get off.
I wish I had your courage.
You'll be great

I'm afraid that most of the things I've done like that involved lots of booze. OK, this had no alcohol involved, and wasn't that daring. Last fall (2000) my roommates and I were bored so we drove down to a nearby pumpkin farm and stole 30 (yes 30) pumpkins (it was night of course). Later we decided to play some games with these lovely pumpkins, so we played Billy Corrigan ball, which involved smashing our pumpkins in our street (a main road in town--pretty busy) and having cars run over them, and also throwing the mess at each other. Yes, the life of college students is quite thrilling. At least we were sober for that.

When I was 18, I got drunk at a friend's graduation party and did a karaoke duet of "Have I Told You Lately That I Love You" (or whatever that song is called) with a local police officer and grabbed his butt.

Everytime I saw him after, he would look at me, smile, and sing that song. *lol*

And for REALLY daring...

I went and met mikal and drank with him.

My first tattoo was pretty daring. It's a small star on my right forearm. So NOT a big deal, but I was only twenty. I'd been talking about it for years, and so finally my friends bundled me into the car and took me up to Sunset Blvd. They paid the 25 (!) bucks and we did it. Or, rather, I did it. It hurt like hell, but even as the guy was doing it, I knew I'd be back for more.

My parents shit themselves, especially my dad. Only really, really BAD girls had tattoos when he was young, so that meant his daughter was going bad right in front of him. They eventually dealt with it, but the second one two years later really pissed off my dad. The third one when I was 35 and married was no big deal. Whaddya know.
 
During the 2000 Presidental Debates, I traveled up to St. Louis to protest Ralph Nader's exclusion. I was surrounded by thousands of protestors and it almost turned into one of the those scenes many people witnessed in Italy this past year. There were armed police officers and it felt very scary, but I loved the idea of standing up for what I believed. I think it took balls to take part in an activity that could have easily turned into a violent escapade.
 
* I kissed my German teacher in high school

* I went to a nude beach with my two best friends and one of their older sisters (all of whom i had never seen totally naked and quite frankly never cared to up until that point). holy crap, what a crazy and uncomfortable experience...and i'd do it again...after numerous shots of whiskey
 
Daring things:

*went sky-diving once
*went hang-gliding once (this was more fun)

Silly things:

*got drunk at a bachelor party and was sitting in a stupor at a respectable bank in downtown Chicago - people pointed and laughed
*wore tube socks (with stripes) with shorts in the Bahamas. Hey, it was the 80's - everyone did it.

I went rock-climbing twice despite being ultra afraid of heights (still am).

Other than that, when I was a pubescent and shy teenager, I told this super handsome guy that I liked him (only to endure endless teasing for the rest of the year).

security guards tried to throw me out of the Mandalay Bay at 4am in the morning at the Island bar in the center of the casino... i was so wasted... but i had a room so i uh promptly went up to the room and "went to sleep" or in other words passed out in the shower lol

Ah, my shady past. It's all coming out now...

I used to wear all my lingerie on the outside, Madonna (vogue days) meets goth. One time at a club my husband pulled off my skirt while we were kinda dancing the forbidden dance on one of those raied go-go stages, and well, everyone got a peek at what skimp I was wearing. Thank god for dark clubs and drunk patrons who couldn't give a rats patootie.

Um what else. Oh, when I was 16 I went to my bro's college grad party, got too drunk, and did a song and dance on a table with god and eveyrone watching to the song Veronica by Elvis Costello - then I loudly announce that I had gotten my period. Of course I don't remember this, but everyone else did. Thank goodness for blackouts.

I flashed my husband in an elevator once, we were getting kind of frisky and couldn't keep our hands off each other. But I waited too long to actually pull off my bra. The door opened, and there was a large group of happy mallshoppers who got a peek at my boobies. So there I was with the elevator door open and everyone staring including a woman who screamed and closed her son's eyes.

I unintentionally started a pub brawl (must've been the clothes I was sporting) 10 years ago when I was in London. I swear it wasn't my fault.

My husband and I thought it would be fun to stop off on a deserted road on our way back from Vegas one summer night about 6 years ago. We got out and started to have our way with one another on the back bumper of the car. Everything was going well, until we looked over. We had been too hot and bothered to notice the parked car about 20 feet away. Thankfully they were inside their vehicle doing the same thing, so hey, when in Rome...

hehe. I think it's my husband who's the bad influence on me.

Er, I think I said too much. I hope I don't get banned. Please don't ban me!
 
Okay so this story is pretty well known by now.

I and Paul who had never even met in person decided to live together and hopefully marry. We knew deep inside our hearts that we were meant for each other.

Paul gave up everything..his job, his home, family, friends, and even Celtic lifetime tickets. He came to America to live with me and within one month, we got married.

I on the other hand took a chance to have this man live with me and my children risking everything.

Now seven months into the marriage, I couldn't be happier. I do thank God for him everyday.

Marta, your story still blows me away.

Daring things I have done? I have done some pretty stupid things before, but daring?
I think the most daring thing I ever did was go to Russia by myself when I was 22 and live there and study there for 4 months.
Most stupid/daring thing-> nearly getting arrested in a small town in Russia for public drunkeness (we were sleighing down a hill on the White House property on cardboard boxes at 2am). That was pretty feckin scary...
 
I slept in a car in New Orleans on Halloween night by myself.

I was trapped in the car because some people I had been with (including the owner of the car) were doing something that I thought psychotic and childish, so I opted to stay in the car as the easiest way to get through the night next to what they were doing.

This is, of course, a largely abridged version of what has been the scariest night of my life. Thank God it was 4 years ago, and I am no longer in contact with those ppl.
